Setup And Upgrade :: Attempted To Perform Unauthorized Operation
Sep 29, 2009
I'm trying to install SQL Server 2008 on a virtual machine with Windows 2008 R2. Setup fails with the error "Attempted to perform an unauthorized operation". Looking at the installation log, I see these details:
I'm attempting to setup the defaco MS security for membership and roles, using a newly created database under SQL 2005 (not express). I created the database using the aspnet_regsql.exe utility and that worked fine. I created my provider connection string logging in as 'sa' wit the proper password. All that seemed to work okay too. However when I attempt to change any of the settings like setting the authentication type or enabling roles, I get the follwing error message: The following message may help in diagnosing the problem: Attempted to perform an unauthorized operation. at System.Security.AccessControl.Win32.SetSecurityInfo(ResourceType type, String name, SafeHandle handle, SecurityInfos securityInformation, SecurityIdentifier owner, SecurityIdentifier group, GenericAcl sacl, GenericAcl dacl) at System.Security.AccessControl.NativeObjectSecurity.Persist(String name, SafeHandle handle, AccessControlSections includeSections, Object exceptionContext) at System.Security.AccessControl.NativeObjectSecurity.Persist(String name, AccessControlSections includeSections) at System.Security.AccessControl.FileSystemSecurity.Persist(String fullPath) at System.IO.File.SetAccessControl(String path, FileSecurity fileSecurity) at System.Configuration.Internal.WriteFileContext.DuplicateTemplateAttributes(String source, String destination) at System.Configuration.Internal.WriteFileContext.DuplicateFileAttributes(String source, String destination) at System.Configuration.Internal.WriteFileContext.Complete(String filename, Boolean success) at System.Configuration.Internal.InternalConfigHost.StaticWriteCompleted(String streamName, Boolean success, Object writeContext, Boolean assertPermissions) at System.Configuration.Internal.InternalConfigHost.System.Configuration.Internal.IInternalConfigHost.WriteCompleted(String streamName, Boolean success, Object writeContext, Boolean assertPermissions) at System.Configuration.Internal.InternalConfigHost.System.Configuration.Internal.IInternalConfigHost.WriteCompleted(String streamName, Boolean success, Object writeContext) at System.Configuration.Internal.DelegatingConfigHost.WriteCompleted(String streamName, Boolean success, Object writeContext) at System.Configuration.UpdateConfigHost.WriteCompleted(String streamName, Boolean success, Object writeContext) at System.Configuration.MgmtConfigurationRecord.SaveAs(String filename, ConfigurationSaveMode saveMode, Boolean forceUpdateAll) at System.Configuration.Configuration.SaveAsImpl(String filename, ConfigurationSaveMode saveMode, Boolean forceSaveAll) at System.Configuration.Configuration.Save(ConfigurationSaveMode saveMode) at System.Web.Administration.WebAdminPage.SaveConfig(Configuration config) at ASP.security_setupauthentication_aspx.UpdateAndReturnToPreviousPage(Object sender, EventArgs e) at System.Web.UI.WebControls.Button.OnClick(EventArgs e) at System.Web.UI.WebControls.Button.RaisePostBackEvent(String eventArgument) at System.Web.UI.WebControls.Button.System.Web.UI.IPostBackEventHandler.RaisePostBackEvent(String eventArgument) at System.Web.UI.Page.RaisePostBackEvent(IPostBackEventHandler sourceControl, String eventArgument) at System.Web.UI.Page.RaisePostBackEvent(NameValueCollection postData) at System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain(Boolean includeStagesBeforeAsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterAsyncPoint)Anyone have any clue why this is happening? Do I need to add something to the database as far as users/roles go? I figured 'sa' would have free roam, but something permission-wise just isn't jiving.

My apologies...I wasn't for sure where to post an error like this...
Over the last 2 months I have gotten this SQL Server error (twice). All existing processes will continue to work, however no new processes can be created and users cannot connect to the server. This is the exact text of the message in the SQL Server error log.
Operating system error 10038: An operation was attempted on something that is not a socket...
Error: 17059, Severity: 18, State: 0
Error accepting connection request via Net-Library 'SSNETLIB'. Execution continuing.
Error: 17882, Severity: 18, State:
While we can typically just stop SQL Server Service and restart the services...I have found it is best to restart the machine during non-production times to take care of any 'residual' effects of this error.
The SQL Server 2000 SP4 box with Windows 2003 Standard SP1 is well maintained by our I.T. team and it typically will run 4 or 5 months without a reboot.
I have scenario in which I am getting a row from XLS and in that ro I have data for multiple tables based on if one table has some data or not
EXAMPLE : Search a table in database on basis of column in the xls row STEP #1 If TABLE A has that row then do nothing and move to next step else insert new row into TABLE A and move to next step STEP #2 If TABLE B has that row then do nothing and move to next step else insert new row into TABLE B and move to next step STEP #3 If TABLE C has that row then do nothing and move to next step else insert new row into TABLE C and move to next step STEP #4 If TABLE D has that row then do nothing and move to next step else insert new row into TABLE D and move to next step STEP #5 If TABLE E has that row then do nothing else insert new row into TABLE E
Currently I am trying to achieve this by using multicast and from that multicast putting inputs into 5 OLE DB DESTINATION but by doing this some time one step execute earlier then previous and integrity constrain violated so getting error.
Aaaaaarrgghh ! (that's better)I am trying to convert a field within my Oracle 9i Database that is oftype BLOB (but this BLOB may contain a combination of clobs/varchars orimages such as gif images, jpg images) to Microsoft SQL Server 2000using Microsoft DTS.On trying to perform this simple conversion I recieved the error "Needto run the object to perform the operation - Exception AccessViolation" from Microsoft DTS and my table that contains this BLOBfield is not converted across.After further investigation I implemented the fixes suggested by theMicrosoft Knowledge Base and "sqldts.com" but still no joy the errorkept occuring.I discovered my modifying the step in the DTS package that handled thistable conversion that contained the BLOB column that when I changed thedata type on my SQL Server target table to VARBINARY and modified thequery so that only the BLOBs that contained clobs/varchars were broughtacross that the error went away.I then proceeded to create another DTS package step that had a querythat only brought across the BLOB column that contained images such asgif images/jpeg images etc. and the error went away and the target typefor the SQL Server target table was set to IMAGE.As the data for this BLOB contains a combination of VARCHARS/CLOBS(concatanted) and also GIF IMAGES/JPEGS in the same source column withOracle 9i I require the same in my target table within SQL server asone column (and I should be able to do that with type IMAGE especiallyas it can store larger objects than VARBINARY but any source BLOBS thatcontain VARCHAR/CLOBs don't seem to want to be loaded as IMAGE theywill only load in to VARBINARY).However judging by my experiences above this doesn't seem to bepossible ?Can anyone help me out with this ?I am on Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Service Pack 4 with latest MDAC(2.8.1).Cheers,Gary
We have a nagging issue here in our application side, which I was trying to troubleshoot and reach no where. Can I have your valuable inputs for resolving/understanding the root cause of the issue?
3709-The connection cannot be used to perform this operation. It is either closed or invalid in this context
This error is not coming regularly (twice it happened and after the program is running successfully with out any problem). Problem having exe is running every 2 minutes interval.
Most of the sites saying this is something related to code written in the application but if that is the case why this error is not happening continuously? The problem having exe is running past 4 months with 2 minutes interval and suddenly thrown this error.
I found one MS site describing about this error but not able to find any fixes for this issue (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/839428). We are on the process of upgrading the operating system with SP2; will this help us to resolve this issue? Please advice.

I am getting an error about "Cannot perform a shrinkfile operation inside a user transaction", but I don't have a shrinkfile command in my procedure. Does SQL hang on to that command if it was received earlier in a different procedure?
I have an SSIS package, that move file from one folder (Download) to another folder (Working), where it will be processed and passed to (Processed) folder. The folder (Working) is created at run time and deleted after finishing process. I ran this package using SQL Server Agent (I created a sql job). My problem is that the package fails to move the file from Download to Working, Although it can move it to other folders (say I skipped Working and move it directly to the already-created folder "Processed").
I traced the problem and found the error "Access is denied", when run the package without Agent (double click). I provided the necessary permissions to all levels of folders to the user XX, which I made it the (SQL Server Agent Service Account) as well as the Job Owner. By this, the package executes successfully (again by double clicking it), but with Agent it FAILS.
Why Agent cannot move the file to the run-time-created folder (Working) ?
having on mind that this is my Target server: what is the way of creating shared folder in order to perform operation from the title (and, of course, to continue with installation of packages etc...)? SQL SERVER 2008 R2
Let's say if the date is 01/01/2015 till 01/01/2016
I want split these dates monthly format wise and then use them in variable in cursors to loop
For an example Monthly date should be 01/01/2015 and 01/31/2015 and use these two values in 2 variables and make a loop until it never ends whole date range which is 01/01/2016
We're doing upgrades from SQL 2008 R2 to SQL 2014. This is blocked due to RS is installed but not configured. Our desired action is to uninstall RS and proceed with the upgrade. But when setuparp.exe is raised, it does not list all the features on the 'Select Features' page. In fact, it only lists the last 2 shared features (SQ Client Connectivity SDK and Microsoft Sync Framework). However, all items appear to be listed on the 'Select Instance' page including RS. I've seen this issue on 2 of our SQL 2008 R2 Servers already.
I have two versions of the same dataflow component , i need to use the new version component in the packages created using the old version . How can i do this using the perform upgrade method .
Hi, I have a component that is on v1.0.0.0 (taken from properties of the GAC'd DLL). Its not finished yet but I want to debug it. Whenever I execute a dataflow containing the component I get a sqldumper window come up and the following errors in the output window:
The component "Normaliser" (1934) could not upgrade itself
The component metadata for "component "Normaliser" (1934)" could not be upgraded to the newer version of the component. The PerformUpgrade method failed. I don't understand why its trying to upgrade the component. Why would it try and do this?
Some extra info:
All the design-time methods (including Validate() ) work fine
I'm on Vista/SQL Server RTM
If I save a package that contains the component,close the package and reopen it I get the same error messages. Why is it trying to perform an upgrade when opening a package? You can try this out for yourself. Here's the component: Jamiet.Ssis.NormaliserComponent.zip Compressed (zipped) Folder 5.0 KB Jamiet.Ssis.NormaliserComponent.zip
All you need to do to make it validate at design-time is hook it up to an output that has IsSorted=TRUE. No configuration required. I can provide the source code if you like.
Source code is here in case anyone is interested: http://cid-550f681dad532637.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/Public/Misc/NormaliserComponent_source_code.zip

I'm trying to install SQL Server Management studio 2012 on my Windows 7 (x64) standalone laptop. When I click "New SQL stand-alone installation..." it runs a Setup Support Rules check and always fails "Setup Account Privileges". I've looked into the error and I keep getting that I need to change security rules but I don't have that option in window 7. How do I get around this without having to resort to a computer running Windows Server?
I have Visual Studio 2013 premium installed along with Localdb v11. I just want to connect and manage my database engine through SSMS when developing any application.
I am running a number of SQL instances on my PC. Within the network, I have think server with various System Center components. For compatibility reasons, some features of System Center 2012 R2 had to be delegated to different SQL databases. My question is, because there is now more than one IP address on my system, and each instance of SQL is assigned to its own IP, is there a way to setup DNS and SQL so the namespace points to the desired IP address? For Instance:
MSSQL2008 instance is set to run on = 11.12.13.1 MSSQL2012 is set to run on = 11.12.13.2 IN DNS: A Record: Mike-PC = 11.12.13.1 A Record: Mike-PC = 11.12.13.2
If I want to use MSSQL2008 by specifying Mike-PC as the DNS name, how would I do that with 100% accuracy? If there is another way to get the job done, I am more than willing to approach this differently.
I am getting the error: "Cannot connect to WMI provider. You do not have permission or the server is unreachable."I tried the solution posted on the Microsoft support page involving a command prompt and the mofcomp "%programfiles(x86)%Microsoft SQL Server<var class="sbody-var"> numbe r</var>Sharedsqlmgmproviderxpsp2up.mof"...This still does not fix the problem, the result of running the above is: Parsing MOF file: C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft SQL Server110Sharedsqlmgmp roviderxpsp2up.mof...MOF file has been successfully parsed...Storing data in the repository..An error occurred while processing item 1 defined on lines 4 - 7 in file C:Prog
Is there way to completely re-install the Configuration Manager? One post suggested the Access denied was Administrator rights but I have full Administrative rights to everything so I don't see that being the problem.
So, I just downloaded and installed Windows 8 and SQL Server 2014 Developer. I used to have Visual Studio, that seems to be gone now. Can't find it. I can't figure out a way to get to SSIS or SSAS.
I noticed accidentally today on my PATH and discovered that I have several variables for different sql versions. I can understand this as I have upgraded from 2008, to 2012 then 2014. Here are the list of variables
when i install sql server 2005 in cluster. I have error at Setup process screen --> the selected components are being configured.all the components are failed.I am using domain account with administrator account privilege on both server.OS : windows server 2008 on virtual machine..when i install sql server agent is enable to select during setup..
I am using windows 8 and I have only one user in laptop. While installing SQL 2014, I am getting an error (Missing System Administrator). Under SQL Server Agent and SQL Server Database I have select the system user and gave the password but still I am getting the error.
I'm trying to do a SQL 2008 cluster installation.I installed one node and now I'm trying to add a failover cluster node.in the "add Node Rules" I get following message:
Rule Check Result...Rule "SQL Server Database Services feature state" failed.The SQL Server Database Services feature failed when it was initially installed. The feature must be removed before the current scenario can proceed.
If I close SSMS, it restarts itself as if it crashed and trying to restore itself. Even if I hit cancel as it's restarting, it will restart itself yet again. This happens twice. what's causing this?
